Get matched with top sewer main clearers in Stockton, AL

"James was on time and did an excellent job clearing my line with efficiency. 10/10 Highly recommended "

" Work was done in efficent and timely manner, and they left the space neat and clean."

"Absolutely wonderful! Great communication and very good job done!"

"There was a scheduling mix-up where my service call was accidentally scheduled for a different day. I called the phone number and the person on the phone (I think Jamie?) apologized for the mix-up and promised to get someone out to my house today. Judd showed up around 4pm and immediately identified the cause of my problems to be a clogged main line. Unfortunately the clearing of the line wasn't as easy as expected. Judd ended up spending several hours working to make sure the line was cleared and that everything was draining properly. Job well done!"

"He had some difficulty with the water lines and pipes under the sink and it took longer than the hour I'd scheduled.   I'm completely happy with the quality of the work but it did cost me quite a bit more than I'd anticipated. <br />"

"I was surprised, after calling other plumbers in Baldwin County, that the first positive responder was 30 minutes away in Mobile. The problem occurred  <strong>2 days</strong> <strong>before Christmas</strong>, and, unlike others, Advanced Plumbing dispatched Mr. Franklin to us within a few minutes. When he arrived, he identified the problem (we have a somewhat complicated septic system with aerator, pump to above-grade field lines, and a 1977 main drain system), and removed the blockage (as well as explained the whys and wheres of it); and finally checked the rest of our system. All communications I had with Mr. Franklin and his dispatcher were informative, reassuring and prompt. Advance Plumbing is now at the top of my contractor list for my home and condo needs. <br />"

"I was referred to this company by my builder. They came out quickly to address a problem in my home. Two gentlemen showed up and performed the work that after looking at realized I could have done it myself as they took a short cut. The biggest problem was that I was ripped off in the price. They charged me $250 for a 1 1/2 hour job and the only materials needed was PVC which doesn't cost but a few dollars at most. I was not pleased with the price. If labor were $85 an hour plus cost for supply it still would have been cheaper. To top it off, they had to return the next day because the pvc wasn't glued and came apart and caused my bathroom to flood. My husband and I were highly disappointed with the service but more so with the price and it pushed the work unneeded done to be pushed behind."

"In 2011 I had to have my house replumbed from poly-b to PEX. After estimates and having seen BLAB TV and reviews I hired Kimmons Plumbing. They did a great job. Since then, have had leaky fixtures in bathtub repaired. Since it was just a few washers they didn't charge for parts. A car ran over my outside shutoff valve and caused it to start leaking above ground. Jeremy from Kimmons repaired it and put an easier lever type shut off handle in. A few years ago he also replaced my hot water heater. Recently, Aug. 2019 Jeremy and Bre helped troubleshoot and diagnose a serious problem with my sewer lines. While here doing that job I had him look at the plumbing a contractor did in my kitchen re-model in a 1973 house I recently bought. This contractor had high marks and rave reviews on multiple web sites. How I don't know. I trusted those reviews so I trusted the contractor. I should have been suspicious when he gave an estimate and when I agreed, just started the job with no formal contract. Also no permits were pulled therefore no inspections. He is not a licensed plumber. That was obvious by the tangled mess under my kitchen sink and a code violation Jeremy spotted immediately. I thought the guy would sub out the plumbing to a licensed plumber. If I knew then what I know now I would not have paid him. I am not naming the contractor because it would just be my word against his. However I learned a valuable and costly lesson. Jeremy and Bre were here on Aug. 15, 2019. I had every shutoff valve in the house replaced with new 1/4 turn valves. All faucets and fixtures in bathtubs replaced with all new stems, valves and handles etc. One toilet had been upgraded to a 1.6 gallon model. The other looked like a much older one but in good condition. I had it pulled, the tank rebuilt inside, and outside seals replaced and the wax seal replaced. These older homes are farther away from the sewer and an older toilet has more water to push the waste further down the line easier. Also, water lines from faucets and toilets replaced with steel braided lines. After doing all of this, Jeremy began the nightmare job under my kitchen sink left by incompetent contractor. When finished, a mish-mash of multiple water lines which were not installed properly, fittings not sweated to the copper lines etc. were gone and a single line coming in for hot and cold water, a single shut off valve for the cold water to the sink, as there already is a new shut off behind the fridge for the ice maker, and a separate shut off for the hot water to the dishwasher that was missing (the code violation). Also, Jeremy cut small sections of sheet rock to access water lines behind wall. When he saw that none of the new fittings that were coming from the copper water lines had been sweated on and then when connecting to the PEX water lines they weren't crimped on he was surprised that they hadn't failed and flooded the kitchen. Jeremy always takes time to answer my questions. For example, I wanted to know why the difference in the types of shut off valves under the bathroom sinks vs. the kitchen because I could get larger handles on the ones in the kitchen. He explained that since all the pipes in the bathrooms were copper and had to be sweated on, that he could only put that type in there. Since the water lines under the kitchen sink had been changed to PEX he could use the other kind (that I asked for) in there. I was going to get an outside shutoff valve installed as well, but when water was turned off at meter water continued to drip from outside faucet when open and in the lines inside as well. Jeremy sucked water out of the line with a shop vac so he could sweat fittings etc. however I had to call ECUA out to replace the shut off valve at the meter because the pipes for the new shutoff valve are glued on and no water can be coming through the line or the glue won't dry. A big shout out to the men from ECUA. It was hot and wet but when they finished there was no more water dripping from the outside faucet. Jeremy and Bre had another job to go to after me believe it or not. It started raining also, so will reschedule the outside shutoff installation. I gave Kimmons an A in price because though they can be higher than some others, you get your money's worth every time. I wanted to give an A in responsiveness but sometimes it can take awhile for Tommy to call back. I know it is because he is in high demand and if an emergency call comes in that can't wait he may call and ask to reschedule your job. I have always told him I am flexible and don't mind waiting for him because they are worth waiting for. Also I always request Jeremy so I have to wait a little longer sometimes:-) So be a little patient and understanding. Kimmons is compassionate and tries to help seniors and others on low fixed incomes get the help they need and can afford. He also is as far as I know the only local plumber to employ a female to go on jobs and do plumbing. Bre is just as good a worker, if not better, than some men I have dealt with. I read the very few negative reviews and it does not sound like the company I have been dealing with for over 8 years. So do this: next plumbing job call several plumbers to get estimates. Ask about pricing; if by the job, what if anything could cause the estimated price to go up and what is included in the price. If by the hour, how much per hour, when does the clock start and if workers stop to go to lunch or have to go get a part that isn't on their truck will they subtract that from the total hours or expect you to pay for it anyway, also when does the clock stop. Some people charge for the time it takes to write up your bill and present it to you rather then when the job is finished. Also ask everybody if they give discounts for seniors and or military every little bit helps. When you find a great mechanic you can trust to fix your car, you go only to them and tell your friends about them too. After my car, the most expensive thing I own is my home. I have found my "house mechanic" when it comes to plumbing. They do great work and I trust them and yes I have referred them to friends."

"We had a great experience with Roto-Rooter. They were originally scheduled to come out on a Friday, but it was raining. So they had to reschedule for the following Thursday. They brought several trucks so they had all the equipment they needed. The men were very easy to work with and kept my husband informed as the job progressed. The gas company had marked the wrong place in the yard for the gas line, so a gas line was broken. But the Roto-Rooter guys called the gas company right away and got it fixed without incident. And even though it is an expensive job I felt like they were reasonable for the amount of work that was done. Overall we were very pleased and would definitely recommend them."

"Everything went really well. The guys we’re prompt and worked hard throughout the day to make sure everything worked properly. They were friendly, professional and quick to answer any questions I had."
